Am I missing something here?
Are they just re-release the 86 hot rod under the MPG label?

Why?

>>11674716
It’s basically an upscaled SS86 with a bit more polishing like having the roof and the back of the legs actually be the right color

>>11674714

Already sold out and I missed him dammit. Oh well, I mainly collect The Movie figures for G1, which he's in for all of five seconds, so I guess I can just let this one go.

What’s an old mold that you think we're likely to get a remake of soon? I personally think they’re going to do either the G2 Flipchanger jets or the G2 Smokescreen/Dreadwing set due to their use in BWII and the amount of redecoes they could do from either
>>11674725
They’ll probably have him in stock again, stores love pulling that kind of stuff to get people to buy things

>>11674668
Shame about the fake chest he carries over from the SS but honestly, he looks great. I still feel like the previous MP would have been fine if they'd nixed the matrix chamber (which he never had) so his chest could be the right shape, but this looks good. Just gotta hope the price isn't retarded.

>>11674668
Meh. It's not bad, but it didn't do anything interesting like Optimus. Aside from stealing Kingdom Rodimus legs and fixing the back, it's just 86 Hot Rod, again.

They could have at least included his targetmaster, the fishing rod/pipe weapon from Kiss Players, the rocket/exhaust gun and/or the bow from animated.

>>11675039

glow in the dark plastic is expensive? first i'm hearing of it, it's found in all kinds of super cheapo shit.
that would explain why Kenner didn't bother to use it in their Techno-Zoids "Demon Lizard" which was otherwise identical to the old Heldigunner. Still fluorescent green under blacklight, but not glow in the dark (thankfully I was able to add some of my own)

yeah I don't see getting this. with the import fees and everything it'd be what, 80 bucks? naw. I bet they won't even bother, knowing that nobody would pay.

I feel like they're trying to release Megatron as the first ML destron

but, and hear me out here, instead of having Megatron + a cartoon color redeco.. they're doing two separate molds. One based off the release toy (with the spring fire rubber bullets), and then one based off the prototype design (which was the basis for the show character model since it's proportions weren't hot shit)

>>11675243
People have wanted a Grimlock reissue for ages and the only way to justify remaking his mold from the ground up is to make it more expensive

HasTak realized they can release anything with "G1" attached to it, and the whales will buy it every time. It's easy money, they don't need to constantly reinvent the wheel. They just have to incrementally tweak small improvements for the same character over and over again. That is enough to make the oldies happy and keep buying their products.

I get why Hot Rod is a difficult one to get right, but I sometimes wonder if they aren't making it more difficult than it needs to be. I think the biggest issue is that it's too fucking G1. I'm not going to say that pic related is the best of all possible Hot Rods, but I think there's room to take the Classics design (or something else for that matter) and iterate on it into something that's more satisfying in both modes than ending on a compromise out of G1 purism. It's Style-Gen anyway, so why not? You could still probably fudge it into something G1-ish enough to fit with MPG-17.

I'm very much glad that the figure isn't overpriced toonshit but it's sad to see the trend of phoning in alt modes continue into MP. That said I don't think it's a bad car, but it's nowhere near as good as MP-28 or MP-09. Those figures were a mess for other reasons though, so I still think MPG-20 is a worthy effort. I'll take it over turning the figure inside out with a bunch of panels and hinges, but that shouldn't be the only other option.

>>11675273
>Megatron SHOULD have a running change and the knee's fixed.
There was no running change. The original run is fucked, the Target reissue is fucked, Flame is fucked.

Oh right, that's my bad, I completely forgot. Takara officially says it so it's true, then. I still won't really consider nemesis to be the true first destron in ML it's just a repaint

>glow in the dark plastic is expensive? first i'm hearing of it, it's found in all kinds of super cheapo shit.
Let me clarify: glow in the dark plastic that DOESN'T use depleted Uranium to achieve the glowing effect is expensive. The reason there were so many cheap toys that have a glow feature back in the day was because the military was literally selling their radioactive waste to toy companies, who used the stuff in everything from children's toys to the hands on watches and wall clocks. It wasn't until the 90's, when glow-in-the-dark gimmicks made a resurgence, that the swapped over to phosphors like strontium aluminate, which, while safer, need to be synthesized in a lab to produce their glow effect. Toy companies literally have to pay a laboratory to make the stuff for them, hence why it's a bit more expensive on their end and why you don't see it so often in modern toys these days.

well glow in the dark shit sure seemed cheap as free in the 90s. and I was told it had only recently gotten way more expensive, so it must have been something else. They claimed it was material shortages, but.. you literally cannot run out of phosphors, so

Man when will Masterpiece ever get to covering Armada/Micron Legends? It's been more than 20 years now and pretty much all of the animation designs is almost 1:1 with the original toys so it would be a slam dunk to get modern animation accurate and articulated versions of the old toys. And no the Generations updated toys isn't entirely accurate to the anime designs or even the old toys.

>>11675477
official MP hasn't hit up armada yet because there isn't as much of a demand for it. I hope official armada MP, if it ever happens, keeps spring loaded mini-con gimmicks though.

>>11675489
It's crazy that there's no demand when Armada Optimus himself was ranked 2nd in that Masterpiece poll all those years ago. Either way that's mostly why I want a MP Armada/Micron Legends line because at least there the Mini-Con pegs and the spring-loaded gimmicks will be retained though I think the spring-loaded Mini-Con gimmicks will be handled like God Ginrai, where plugging a Mini-Con into an active peg will release a clasp allowing whatever part was held down (such as Hot Shot's Axelzooka) to be released but you'd have to manually move the part from then on. I think it would be a nice compromise between keeping the spring loaded unlock feature of the Mini-Cons and having whatever weapon was unlocked by said Mini-Cons not rely on springs and be more durable as a result.

>>11675477
Masterpiece hasn't done G1 Galvatron and you think they're ever touching Armada?

>>11675264
>hate on MP-28 for not being perfect
That's an understatement.

>>11675497
The problem is if they make an MP Armada Optimus fans will expect them to make an MP Armada Megatron. If it's just a one-off then what's the point? Third parties will then fill in and take the scale of the official figure and make the rest of the armada cast.

Another big issue is.. uh.. Armada designs are.. simple-ish. They have easy transformations and the designs on the toys are very much similar to the designs on the show. Unlike G1 MPs which were designed to get 100% screen accurate robot and 100% screen/real life accurate alt modes (depending on the era), which was a tough challenge on some designs, and unlike movie MPs which are just designed to flex engineering, Armada.. really doesn't have a whole lot of engineering to deal with. Takara would mostly be focusing on die-cast, scaling, and updating the mini-con gimmicks to not impede articulation. Certainly a tough undertaking but it's not exactly the same as engineering a bunch of fucking panels like MP is known for.

If Takara were to update Armada in an MP style, I hope they would call it something else. ARMADA STYLE FLEET or something. I just don't think the 'MP' branding would truly fit on Armada updates.

The designs are simple but that didn't stop God Ginrai from getting a MP toy and he's really simple by MP standards. I don't think it's a requirement that you need to have the toy be panels upon panels to be considered a MP toy. Yes, the vast majority is basically that but there's been lots of changes with the MP toyline as of late with the obvious fact that it's MPG now. TakaraTomy probably wants to milk even more and has made the restrictions more laxed. And besides, there's still a good number of Armada designs that can be complicated, chief among which is Optimus's trailer because the Generations toy dumbed down the base mode to avoid the headache of having the trailer be a bunch of panels folded like one of those blueprint patterns and somehow retain knee and hip articulation when all is said and done which is fair. I also want a good animation accurate Hot Shot toy that also stays true to the original toy but has proper articulation. So far both attempts in Generations has been duds.

>>11675522
Which one are you referring to? The Legacy one? It's a solid figure but the lion face is a bit wonky, and since he really only has one other Maximal from his cast available he's sort of an outlier.

>>11675537
also missing some ab paint

>>11675537
>The Legacy one?
Yeah. I don't care that much about the character and the lion is indeed goofy but a voyager for $20 in 2026? I'll take it.

>>11675522
I really like the figure a lot... except that the lion head is awful. Someone at Hasbro (I believe it was Mark?) said they were going for a realistic lion sculpt, but they seem to have failed at that 'cause it just looks horribly derpy.

In case you don't already know, Takara recently released a new version of the toy with extra paint apps and an entirely new sculpted lion head and blades for the arms. The new sculpt is pretty cartoony since it's based on the lion mode design from the BW2 anime, but it's a welcome alternative to Hasbro's lion sculpt, even if it goes a bit far in the opposite direction. Plus, it has new parts to let his mane spin in a recreation of his "Lion Typhoon" attack from the show. It got severely delayed because they had to fix a factory misassembly error that would have impeded the transformation, but it finally came out and looks great!

All that said, if you don't mind Hasbro's weird lion face, then the Legacy release is still a fun figure other than that, so I hope you're enjoying it!

Fuck it, I'm getting Romulus. Maybe the not Hasbro thread knows more about future rereleases from Newage.

Actually, I meant to do a little write-up on the Anniversary Lio Convoy - he got here on Sunday, but I've been busy. Given that people are just getting theirs now and the new Green one (which uses this version of the mold) goes up for preorder later today, it seems like now's the best time for it.
Lio's got a couple of changes made to him from the original Legacy release - not just the new face, but new Lion Claws, a new mane with a rotating gimmick, and lots of shiny new paint; his lion tail is sculpted in a gold plastic to match his new mane color.

>>11675657

Side-by-side beast mode comparison with the Legacy version. Some people may find the anime face on the new one to be a bit goofy, but I find it far preferable to the "realistic" one. Besides, it's cartoon accurate - kinda funny to have people go on and on about how they need their toys to look accurate to the G1 cartoon, but when it comes to Lio looking the way he's supposed to, people are put off.
Regardless, the new Lio's mane no longer has the two flip-up slots for his two "Lio Missiles", though you can clip them into the two rectangular slots on the top of his head. His mane bits on the side no longer have the clearance to swing forward the way his Legacy toy's did, which is why he no longer has his two small pistols - there's nowhere to put them, even if you "borrowed" them from his Legacy toy.

Robot mode. My camera's really on its way out, so it's a bit hard to see all the cool new metallic paint he has. His lower abs are fully painted, as are his hands, his head, his Matrix Chamber, and a bunch of other places. His "Lion Claws" are nearly twice as long as the Legacy version's dinky little ones, and now actually point in the correct direction (curved back away from his lion toes). His Lio Missiles are painted now, too - but since these are the missiles and not the pistols, he can't hold them in his hands; they can still plug into the backs of his wrists, or slot into his back like on the Legacy toy.

Of course, the biggest change here is that he now has his fully functional "Lion Typhoon" gimmick - the fur bits around his lion head are all attached to a wheel and can spin freely in either direction when extended. This gimmick is why the flip-up Lio Missile gimmick was abandoned, as the flip-up parts would get in the way of the mane's ability to spin.
Even if he no longer has his pistols or the Lio Missile Attack gimmick, I much prefer this version of him over the Legacy one - he looks the way he's supposed to, I really like his longer claws, the paint is great, and it's fun spiiiiinnnniiiinnggg his shoulder around. Hopefully I'll be able to get the new Green one when he goes up in 9 or so hours.

Semi-related to the current conversation, but I also tracked down my very own Newage S01A "Remus" Version after that anon showed off his two threads ago. I love him - I mentioned before, but I always wanted a proper "gun Megatron", and this guy's pretty great all around - he's got a nice ab crunch, comes with all the faceplates and additional weapons of the MP while being CHUG-sized, and I really like this specific colorscheme (which I don't think has been used as an official character by Hasbro yet). He was a bit pricey, but I feel he was the better choice than SS86 Megatron; my only issue with him is that he didn't come with any instructions, though I was able to find videos on YouTube that worked well enough.
Rather than using him as a 'replacement' Megatron in my collection, I think I'll just repurpose him as his own character - an Autobot, given he seems to have a more 'heroic' looking face and no faction symbols anywhere on him (obviously).

>>11675665
I want to get him, but losing his all gun mode is a bit dissapointing, and they still didn't change his gauntlets so they could swing out as melee weapons.

>>11675666

He is a fantastic colour scheme and yeah he was a little pricey, I got him for $110

LOL yeah it's not good quality. It looks okay at a distance but up close it looks like it was made out of a Christmas gift bag.
That's the one image I took with it before tossing it.

Got 86 Soundwave. It does a lot of weird things and I'm not sure I love it. The tabs that connect the leg to the torso are no longer thick rectangular tabs, they're now thinner tabs with a clip at the end, getting them in and out is very annoying and I don't feel like they'll last long. The entire head transformation section is just bizarre, it uses a lot of space, but a good half of it isn't even necessary, you'd assume this is for storage (for the extra stuff included with the cassettes) but nothing is mentioned in the instructions. The tabs connecting the head to the body are both small and annoying to click in place.
The knee extensions are purely friction based, and while mine are currently tight, I've seen videos of other copies having them loose out of the box. On the weapons, I already knew the gun had the wrong orientation, but they also took out the pivot from the missile launcher. I can't recommend it at the current priced and I still feel ripped off after paying 50 (tax included) for mine.

It's more than just the eyes. Yes, painting in the eyes help, but it still goes a long way from fixing the problems with that sculpt. The biggest issue is that the lion face (especially the bridge of the nose) slopes way too far downward and not enough outward, making its proportions look almost like a cross between a lion and a horse, making the whole head seem droopy and weird. It's like the eyes are facing forward, but the snout is more at a downward angle. Painting the eyes makes the lion face seem more alive, but still fundamentally bad-looking in terms of overall shape.

>>11675776
>>11675746
What's weird is that Takara's new remold has exposed teeth too, but don't look nearly as bad. Maybe it's because it's more anime-stylized, or maybe it's 'cause they're sculpted as actual triangles rather than rounded stubs?

>>11676107
>but by modern standards (and for that matter, 90s standards) it's amazing
I don't know what you're talking about. I literally have the BW2 Lio Convoy figure on my shelf in the room I'm in right now, and his lion head, while imperfect, looks a thousand times better than the Legacy lion head.

Prime did a pretty good job with that, actually.

>>11676515
Say what you will about the aligned continuity but it really excelled at weird body shapes. Prime had a lot of interesting humanoid proportions and RID 2015 had a lot of weird and wacky decepticon designs. I would argue that the war/fall of cybertron games also have interesting body types.

There's a third party Ramjet if you're into those. If you can find these still try Nightstalker, Skywasp and Toxitron.

/tfg/ has a hateboner for everything, depending on which retards are present at any given moment. Personally, I like the concept behind MPG-17, but I don't need another Prime. Whether or not I purchase him depends on whether he ends up being a pre-tool for an Ultra Magnus with an inner bot, and also probably whether or not it gets a Delta Magnus repaint, since I've long decided that blue/black Optimus > everything.

Although it might be too little, too late. The ML version could be enough to quench my thirst for a proper, full Delta Magnus, but I won't really know until I can make comparisons.

I like how blue Optimus is now simultaneously Delta Magnus and Magna Convoy.

Personally I like Style Gen, it feels like a return to the Hasui golden age of MPs where not everything was 100% beholden to cartoon-literalism. Hot Rod being based on the SS86 figure is a bit weird but then again, it works.

>>11676884
I always think that Sunbow cartoon accuracy on a toy ruined the robot aesthetics.
Style Gen is cool, the problem being there are too many of the same characters released.

>>11676878
My one hope is that Style Gen finally allows us to get characters whose vehicle modes couldn’t be licensed, like Jazz or Cliffjumper

>>11676884
I always think the supposed Hasui era lasted longer than it did since great toys he didn't design wind up getting lumped into it. His era was like, four molds total.

>>11676886
"I respect the first entries of any robot franchises, like Mazinger and Getter Robo. Obviously, the first ones are much more simplified in design due to the different design philosophies at the time and likely limitations in animating them. Their later reimagined robot designs are better and more to my taste.

The issue with Transformers is that the vocal majority only treasures G1 and never moves past that. It's sad, really.

Equally cancerous thinking

MP stuff past MP05 already feels like premium CHUG which is why style gen feels especially egregious

Wouldn't be possible to say the middle or right is not better than the left (judging only by designs).

>>11676808
>Bottom
Moonracer and Firestar definitely could use a redo instead of all sharing the same mediocre mold.

i think Tripredacus would have the show heads so that Tripledacus stands out more with their head designs.

I wish they’d make some Voyager fembots but someone at HasTak is determined to make the vast majority of fembots Deluxes for some reason

I'd love a voyager Firestar that replicates the truck mode she had in the show.
Fun fact, she's a canon partsformer.

>>11676791
You're asking why they are slow making figures that ended up in deep clearance every single time?

Even that SDCC Combiners Hunters three pack showed up at Ollies.

>>11676921
You watch the anime in the 70's? Must be a nostalgic reason like the G1 fans.

>>11676916
they're good in different ways. I honestly like them all as a series of evolutions of a singular design.

>The Movie Thundercracker just shipped from Amazon

Sweet, looking forward to seeing the new mold and adding best seeker to my Decepticon display.

not a voyager but Kup actually would work for her.

Too small. Firestar was a big truck.

Could Magna Convoy and Delta Magnus' lore be combined in a way that makes them the same character? Does it even really matter? Neither one is in very much media, apart from comics drawn specifically to sell them as toy recolors. And

I do remember this silly little one-off of Magna wearing Delta's armor in one of the legends comics, tho. As far as I'm concerned, Magna Convoy is just Delta Magnus' inner bot, seeing as how he doesn't seem to officially have one, akin to Ultra Magnus.

>you can only like old things because of nostalgia
Damn, haven't seen a legit underage poster in so long

>>11676967
It's less an "underage" thing, and moreso a (retarded) mindset brought on by the fact that new products and content are seemingly infinite in current year. We've finally hit that point where there is so much instantly-accessible garbage to consume that there's a good swathe of people who cannot comprehend authentically liking something that isn't shiny and new and being jingled in their faces, because they've never had to. All they know is that dopamine hit that they get from seeing something they've never seen before, and they're holding onto it for dear life.

>>11676966
>Could Magna Convoy and Delta Magnus' lore be combined in a way that makes them the same character?
Yes, Delta Magnus is just several guys in armor like IDW Ultra Magnus. But ulitmately
>Does it even really matter?
Not really, no. Magna Convoy is a precursor world character, that's like asking if Purple Convoy and SG Optimus Prime can coexist or be the same character.
The blue prime in your pic isn't even Magna Convoy, it's Ginrai.

>>11676970
Lots of coping. Those are not the latest products. I think many people can agree that Shin Getter Robo has a better design than the original. Personally, I prefer the Devolution design more for its different take on proportions.

>>11676967
It's not a problem to like old things, it's about design aesthetics. The original has some designs that most people don't like, such as the big belly. So, obviously, the original's design would be ranked lower compared to other versions.

>>11676977
>I think many people can agree that Shin Getter Robo has a better design than the original.
Many retards, maybe.

>>11676982
Ah, so it's about getting filtered. Got it.

>>11676997
It's just people's preferences, I don't understand why it upsets you. It's always better to have more options (different takes/designs) rather than having none.

>>11677003
>I don't understand why it upsets you.
It doesn't upset me. I just like arguing with anons who say stupid things like "PEOPLE ONLY LIKE OLD THINGS BECAUSE OF NOSTALGIA HURRRRR". I'm at work and literally getting paid to do so, lol.

>>11677006
But that's mostly the case, fans love the character and want to own the toy, even as they grow older.

90% of the discussion here is about wanting a toy from cartoon they watched when they were young.

The truth is, you're upset because you assume that anyone with a different preference than yours is trying to provoke you and mock what you love in your childhood.

>>11677026
I think the truth is you think that guy could only be upset because of nostalgia
